@KingAlbertoJrSpeed Where's the respect fams? Lol

 

[KingSpeed]

I said I could shoot as well as Crabbe. What does that have to do with defending? I would try. I'm not in bad enough shape that trying to play defense means I can't shoot anymore.

Okay then.

 

[KingSpeed]

How did Cleveland win title with this trash D?

 

[Sinobas]

I disagree. So there you go.

No you don't.

 

[illmatic99]

0 rim protection

 

[KingSpeed]

This might be Dame's best game of the year. Shooting well, 9 assists.

 

[KingSpeed]

0 rim protection

That's why Neil signed Ezeli. Oh well.

 

[BonesJones]

That's why Neil signed Ezeli. Oh well.

I would've done as well as Ezeli protecting the rim so far this year. So could you.

Ha ha

 

[KingSpeed]

Don't quit, Dame!

 

[KingSpeed]

Triple double coming for Dame?

 

[BonesJones]

Triple double coming for Dame?

Hopefully.

 

[BonesJones]

Don't quit, Dame!

How do you stay so positive?

 

[KingSpeed]

Anyone know Aminu's status?

 

[KingSpeed]

How do you stay so positive?

I'm thinking long game. It's November. We are 7th in west coming into this game. We're losing on road against champs. Not something to be crying over. We have homestand coming up. We'll be okay. It's not like we're 3-15 or something like that.

 

[HailBlazers]

Anyone know Aminu's status?

Na but they said he looked well in warm-ups.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Hopefully the Cavs are showcasing Love for us

 

[KingSpeed]

Also Turner is playing better which is good. And our lineup with Aminu leads the NBA with a +15 per 100 possessions. Lots of positives.

 

[illmatic99]

Man dame has 30 and 10 with this fatigue. crazy

 

[KingSpeed]

Hopefully the Cavs are showcasing Love for us

Do you want Love on our team?

 

[Sinobas]

We so have this game in the bag! It'll be the most incredible comeback in blazer history!!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Do you want Love on our team?

Our team already doesn't play defense, so that's a fit. Rather have him instead of any of our 4's

 

[KingSpeed]

Dame not giving up

Got it.

 

[Cippy91]

Unfortunately dames great performance is ruined again by his shitty team mates

 

[Mediocre Man]

I wonder what our record is when Dame scores over or under 30

 

[KingSpeed]

Unfortunately dames great performance is ruined again by his shitty team mates

His teammates aren't shitty.

 

[KingSpeed]

40 for Dame

Stotts run a defense scheme like he still has the tall rim proctectors in LMA days. The problem is he doesn't have that with this team. So he needs come up with something that plays to these players abilities. But if we continue play this scheme without a rim proctectors then a possible it will be a long season. You don't allow 80 points in a half and a coach has to tell himself he has to change something.
